Hollow clay tile wall
Hollow clay tile wall
(OP)
I need to connect some new wood framing to an old hollow clay tile wall. Loads are small, but I still need some guidance on how to do this. I believe the existing framing sits in joist pockets. Does anyone have any experience connecting by drilling/epoxy or expansion anchors in these kinds of walls? I would think that is probably not a good idea, but I'm not sure.

Check Hilti HY70.

I would simply try to pocket into the wall in addition to added grout below to create a more solid bearing.

Oh, and in case you didn't understand: seismic. These are very poor in seismic situations.
